New attributes as Subledger Accounting Sources

You can now view the following attributes for each journal entry line that's displayed within subledger accounting (SLA):

• Flow Name of Costing Process
• Flow Name of Costed Base Process
• Name of Costing Process
• Name of Costed Base Process
• Date Earned of Costed Base Process
• Effective Date of Costed Base Process

These attributes provide additional details about the costing result that generated the journal entry.  For example, your company has processed 3 balance adjustments and sent the costs to subledger accounting. You can now display the Date Earned for each balance adjustment on the corresponding journal entry line.

You have the option to include attributes from the original (base) process and the payroll costing process. For example, you can display both the flow name of the Balance Adjustment and the flow name of the corresponding Costing of Balance Adjustment process on the journal entry.

Base (Original Process)	Costing Process	Comments
Calculate Payroll	Calculate Payroll
QuickPay	QuickPay
Reverse Payroll Calculation	Reverse Payroll Calculation
Balance Adjustments	Costing of Balance Adjustments
Payroll / QuickPay	Retroactive Costing
Payroll Run/ QuickPay	Costing Adjustments
	Partial Period Accruals	Base (Original) process attribute is not applicable for Partial Period Accruals process.
Prepayments	Costing of Prepayments

 This table details which attributes are available for each payroll costing process.

	Flow Name of Costing Process	Flow Name of Costed Base Process	Name of Costing Process	Name of Costed Base Process	Date Earned of Costed Base Process	Effective Date of Costed Base Process
Calculate Payroll	X	X	X	X	X	X

The new attributes as SLA sources allow Transfer to Subledger and Creating Accounting processes to be run in batches rather than in a single batch for payroll processes that are performed on a daily basis.

Steps to Enable

You don't need to do anything to enable this feature.

Tips And Considerations

To display the name of the attributes in the subledger journal lines, create a description rule for the above new attributes as the source, and attach the new rule to the Subledger Journal Entry Rule sets.
